Definition of the terms input and output
An output is a data value sent to a MODBUS slave and an input is a monitoring valuegenerated by the same MODBUS slave.
The MODBUS FieldBusPlug MRP21-FBP establishes the field bus connection between the MODBUS
and the terminal devices connected to this bus. The MODBUS FieldBusPlugs are slaves (nodes) on the
MODBUS network.The terminal devices must have the field bus-neutral interface (e.g. as provided by the ABB FBP modules
MSD11-FBP, MSR22-FBP, MFI21-FBP and UMC22-FBP).

The data exchange between the MODBUS FieldBusPlug and the terminal device can be performed in two
ways:
Parallel communication
The signals are exchanged directly via the connections of the field bus-neutral interface.Scope of data: max. 1 digital output (1 control signal to terminal device) plus 2 digital inputs
(2 feedback signals from terminal device). If the FieldBusPlug does not receive any telegram
from the terminal device during power-on, this mode of data exchange will be set.
Serial communicationThe signals are exchanged with the help of a serial data protocol via the field bus-neutral
interface. Binary, analog, parameter and diagnostic data is sent and received. As soon as the
FieldBusPlug receives a valid telegram from the terminal device, this mode of data exchange
will be set non-volatile.
The MODBUS FieldBusPlug MRP21-FBP behaves as an input/output module on the MODBUS.
During the initialization phase, the plug receives the device-specific (configuration) data from the terminal
device. This data is equal to the corresponding data in the bus master, provided that the correct terminal
device was selected there.
During start-up, an optional configuration data may be transferred from the bus master to the plug. To
make sure that the right serial device is connected.
To make sure, that the bus master can access the slaves connected to the bus line, a setting of the slaveaddresses is always necessary. Generally and over the full address range, the CAS21-FBP addressing set
can be used. But it is easier, if the terminal device has address setting switches or similar means for the
address setting. In this case, the FieldBusPlug adopts the address from the terminal device during power-
on.
Once the address is set, it is stored in the FieldBusPlug, even in case of supply voltage breakdown.
According to the MODBUS standard, the addresses 1 to 247 can be set. The address 0 is reservedand should not be used for slaves.
For diagnosis purposes, the MODBUS FieldBusPlugs are equipped with four LEDs (see Figure 25: Indica-
tors and operating elements on the front plate).
In addition to the two signal cores, the MODBUS cable contains two cores for 24 V. This voltage is always
necessary for supplying the FieldBusPlugs. The voltage can be fed-in at the bus master, for example.
Caution:
False polarity or reversal between bus lines and power supply lines can cause a destruction of the Field-
BusPlug.

Supplying the terminal devicescan be selected as follows:
Internal supply(switch position INT): The terminal device is powered from the bus cable, too.
External supply(switch position EXT):
The terminal device is powered by a remote power supply. This is necessary, if the current
consumption is high or if there are components installed to the terminal device, which are not
nearby, e.g. proximity switches. There is an electrical isolation between the MODBUS signals
and the field bus neutral interface.

MODBUS physical communication layer
Physical communication layer
At the physical level, the RS-485 (TIA/EIA-485) two-wire interface is used. This allows point to point and
multipoint systems.
Maximum number of devices on a bus segment
Each bus segment can have a maximum of 32 active devices.
MODBUS RTU master
MODBUS slave
Repeater
In order to be able to connect a larger number of MODBUS devices, a repeater is used. Repeaters inter-
connect the bus segments and refresh the data signals. Each repeater also allows to extend the maxi-mum admissible cable length. Repeaters increase the signal propagation delay times, therefore a maxi-
mum of fourrepeaters are allowed between any two stations.
Length
Trunk cable:
The end-to-end length of the trunk cable is limited. The maximum length is 1000m.
The bus length can be extended with repeaters (max. 4 repeaters in series).
Drop cable:
The use of passive bus stub lines should be avoided. The use of repeaters and active taps
is recommended.
Line Termination
Termination resistors should be placed only at the ends of the bus line, and no more than
2 terminations should be placed in any system that does not use repeaters.
A switchable (on/off) terminal resistor (and bias resistors) are normally placed in:
MODBUS master
Repeater
RS-232 to RS-485 converter (see Figure 9)
The terminal resistor DNR11-FBP.120 can be used (see Accessories) if the device at the end of the line
has no built-in terminal resistor.

Biasing the line
When an RS-485 bus is in an idle state, all devices are in listen (receive) mode. Without anything driving
the bus, the state of the line is unknown. In order to maintain a proper idle voltage state, bias resistors
must be appliedto force the data lines to the idle condition. Bias resistors are a pull-up resistor on thedata B line (typically to 5V) and a pull-down (to ground) on the data A line.
Bias resistors are normally placed in:
MODBUS master
Repeater
RS232 to RS485 converter
The MODBUS FieldBusPlug MRP21-FBP has build-in bias resistors of 22 k each.
Fail save biasing of the bus
The sum of all bias resistors, from the data B line typically to 5V respectively from the data A line to
ground, in a bus segment shall be 750 .
Example 1:
Mounting 31 FieldBusPlugs in a MODBUS segment the sum of the bias resistors is ~ 710
In that case no additional bias resistors are necessary.
Example 2:
Mounting 5 FieldBusPlugs in a MODBUS segment the sum of the bias resistors is 4400 .
One pair of bias resistors are additionally necessary. Normally switch in bias resistors are
placed in MODBUS master, repeater or RS-232 to RS-485 converter.

MODBUS round cable, one cable end without plug
Powering the FieldBusPlugs and the devices
Supply INT / EXT
The supply of the FieldBusPlug is always made via the bus cable. This enables the FieldBusPlug to mo-nitor the actual -e.g. faulty- status to the control station even when it is removed from the device or when
power down appears on the device.
With the switch EXT/INT set to EXT or the equivalent wiring on the device the supply is limited to the
FieldBusPlug.
As an exception even some devices can be supplied via the bus. In this case the switch has to be set to
position INT.
But normally the devices connected to the MODBUS are intelligent and have, therefore, inputs which are
normally not insulated from the device supply. And these inputs can be connected to distant components
such as push buttons or limit switches.
This means, with the supply of the devices via the bus a widely branched supply network would arise
which cannot be surveyed and where a short circuit on an external component or lead wire paralyses the
complete bus communication.
The loss of voltage bridging time from the FieldBusPlug is 1ms. Therefore the 24 V DC power supplyshall have a loss of voltage bridging time of 10ms.
To be noticed
Use separate supply units or separately fused supply circuits for the FieldBusPlug line and the
devices.
Use the INT position of the INT/EXT switch only during commissioning of single devices and only
if inevitable.
On the installation site use the INT position only for simple devices such as proximity switches or
MSD11-FBP / MSR22-FBP. In this case also check the supply situation / voltage drops carefully.
Check carefully whether the switches of the devices are set to EXT before delivering to the in-
stallation site.
Check the supply situation. Dont forget to check the total bus length.

Feed-in 24 V DC if the bus cable is long
If the distance between the bus master and the slaves is longer, it may be necessary to feed-in
24 V DC for the FieldBusPlugs on a second place.
All slaves, also the most distant slave from the supply, need to be supplied with min. 19.2 V DCincluding ripple. That means that the power supply unit has to provide a higher voltage to compensate
the voltage drops due to the l ine resistance.

Always use isolated converters!
Use the types that enables the RS-485 transmitter by detecting a transmit signal on the RS-232line (automatic controlled).
It is important to note that the RS-485 transmit data line is disabled at a fixed interval after the last
bit, typically one character length.
Has the converter a pull-up and pull-down resistor included?
Check that the termination resistor corresponds with the line impedance.

MODBUS master communication parameters
For the MODBUS communication between the master and the FieldBusPlug several parameters have to
be set. The parameters and their settings are shown in the following table:
Notes for the MODBUS master
The following times have to be considered by the MODBUS master.
In RTU mode, message frames are separated by a silent interval of at least 3.5character times.
The start of a new telegram is expected if the silent interval is > 3.5 character times.
How to set the slave address
The FieldBusPlug has the slave address 248 after distribution. In this case it is not possible to
communicate with the FieldBusPlug via MODBUS.
To make sure, that the bus master can access the slaves connected to the bus line, a setting of the slaveaddresses is always necessary. Generally and over the full address range, the CAS21-FBP addressing set
can be used. But it is easier, if the terminal device has address setting switches or similar means for the
address setting. In this case, the FieldBusPlug adopts the address from the terminal device during power-
on.
Once the address is set, it is stored in the FieldBusPlug, even in case of supply voltage breakdown.
According to the MODBUS standard, the addresses 1 to 247 can be set. The address 0 is reserved andshould not be used for slaves.

Use of devices without a communication protocol (parallel device)
Examples for devices with parallel communication are:
- sensor - pilot signal tower
- push button panels
Devices without a communication protocol are mapped with two binary input values and one binary out-
put value.
Supported requests
The following requests are supported for these devices:
Set baud rate via MODBUS
Write configuration data
Read binary input values (parallel device)
Write binary output values (parallel device) Read additional data
Optional device configuration data
For all devices without a communication protocol the following configuration data could be used.
Device address adjustment
These devices have no possibility to set a MODBUS slave address by hardware.
Therefore the Addressing Set CAS21-FBP.0 for PDP,DNP etc. can be used.
Order code: 1SAJ929003R0001
Once the address is set, it is stored in the FieldBusPlug, even in case of supply voltage breakdown.

MODBUS exception codes
Code Name Meaning
01 ILLEGAL FUNCTION The function code received in the request is not anallowable action for the slave.
It could also indicate that the slave is in the wrong
state to process a request of this type, for example
because it is not configured
02 ILLEGAL DATA ADDRESS The data address received in the request is not an
allowable address for the slave.
03 ILLEGAL DATA VALUE A value contained in the request data field is not an
allowable value for slave. This indicates a fault in the
structure of the remainder of a complex request, such
as that the implied length is incorrect.
04 SLAVE DEVICE FAILURE An unrecoverable error occurred while the slave was
attempting to perform the requested action.
- Wrong configuration
- Not supported baud rate
- Serial device connected, but parallel device
addressed
- Parallel device connected, but serial device
addressed
- Connected serial device defective
